To see interactive 3d in the notebook you *need* some sort
of Java plugin.  Period.  For noninteractive 3d just put
viewer='tachyon' somewhere when making your 3d plot -- that
will work anywhere and doesn't use java at all, e.g,.
try this:

var('x,y')
plot3d(sin(x*y) - cos(y*x^2), (x,-2,2), (y,0,3), viewer='tachyon')

Sorry about requiring java for interactive 3d plots, but javascript
just isn't capable of that sort of thing right now.
